This is what I have told you, Ksatta, about which you asked me: the talk between the Pracetas and Narada, in which Hari is praised. This line of Uttanapada, son of Manu, has now been told out. Hear about Priyavrata's line too, best of kings. He got the knowledge of the self from Narada, then enjoyed the earth again, divided it among his sons, and reached the state that belongs to the Lord. Ksatta heard this good telling, given by the son of Kusaru, in which the Unconquered is spoken of; his feeling swelled and he was overcome with tears, and he held the sage's foot on his head and Hari's in his heart. Great yogin, today you, whose nature is pity, have shown me this far shore of the darkness, where Hari is, who goes to the man who has nothing.

Saying this, Vidura bowed to him and took his leave, and went to the city named for the elephant, his heart at rest, wanting to see his own kinsmen. King, one who hears this about kings who gave themselves over to Hari gains long life, wealth, fame, good fortune, a way to go, and mastery.
